Shanghai, China

LSUME86 I'm also looking for a place to watch the LSU/UW game in Shanghai. The Grand Hyatt only has the european version of ESPN, and they are not broadcasting the game. Please post a spot if/when you find one, and I'll do the same. Watching live on Sunday morning at 7 am certainly won't feel the same as Saturday night in Tiger stadium.

Get VPN then buy ESPN Player for $149 for 2012 and till Dec 2013, or buy for one month if that is all you will need it for. The VPN will also work and be needed for CBS games on through the internet. The VPN is needed where Player is not offered and I think China is included. I get it normal in Abu Dhabi.

If you have to see all the games (Idaho -Tigervision), then get a Slingbox set up through Direct TV or Dish Network and order the game through your cable subsrciption and it will stream live to your PC.

Or, find a US hotel chain who has ESPN or ESPN America that plays mostly USA content then game on!!!

I should start an official LSU Abu Dhabi Association. Actually there are a few Louisiana people working here in the Oil & Gas companies. Furthermore, I met 3 CEO's in O&G and a huge Investment Group, one from UAE, Yemen, and the other from Jordan. Those boys love Louisiana food. Hell, one of them will fly 700 pounds of LIVE Crawfish every year for his company party/golf outing

Just get the Slingbox and a VPN then purchase ESPN Player and CBS Sports online. You will be covered for all games on the Computer if you have a decent internet speed

Great, glad you enjoyed it.

I am in the process of choosing a place in Abu Dhabi to open my own. It will rock. I am in Oil & Gas but want to share the great Cajun Food with my Arab friends and all expats. I will let the whole rant know when that is open and of couse will be added to the list of where to watch an LSU game around the world
